 Topic: Neal Breitbarth back in hospital
Posted: 21 Nov 2018 at 10:53pm |
Neal posted this on his face book site and I figured I would share it - so if anyone wants to send a message or - sounds like he can use a few prayers also Must be popular here at Methodist Hospital. Doctors from Medical, Infectious Disease and ENT (my favorite guy from St Mary's) have been in, some several times. CT last night didn't show any problems. Getting lots of meds. Since I’ve lost so much weight, I’m getting nutrition through a feeding tube. The teams are still discussing a more permanent feeding tube into the stomach, since we could deal with this after each chemo treatment. Becky and Jonah flew back East this morning. Pastor Haak, Trinity, Rochester, stopped in to have devotions. IJuleen is with me all the time and I love having her here for her love and companionship and it’s also nice she is a walking encyclopedia of health and family. Thank you to everyone thinking and praying for me. |

Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do? You stop drinking and get off the carousel.

Getting stronger every day. ENT, OT and Speech (swallowing) have all signed off my case now. PT wants me to use a walker to move; it’s a lot easier to just carry it. Tomorrow I will have a feeding tube put into my stomach, then the one in my nose can be removed. Thankful for having nutrition putting calories back on my body. Chemo will probably have to be postponed until the infection in my neck is gone. Time will tell. We hope to return home by the end of the week. Thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
